@sickVisionz: So even though the OP was the one using the improper form of "anime" compared to his intention I'm the one at fault? What flawless logic you have there.

Until the rules state that only japanese manga/anime is allowed, Samurai Jack is allowed because the OP's own rules by definition say it's ok for him to be in it. If he changes the rules by editing his post I will take out Jack. But until then my point stands and you haven't disproven the fact that the definition of anime applies to all animation.

1. Your team MUST have 6 members in it2. You can ONLY use characters that are in the HST power range in stats or below3. your team will be in character4. You can only use MAIN CHARACTERS, If a series has more then one main then you have to pick one5. Your team must be Balanced6. You can't pick more then one character from a series , Try and mix and match your team7. your team will have no prep8.your team will have their standard equipment9. your members can be EOS or current( depending on the series)

Which of these rules say "You can't take a character that was already taken by another user."?

@SMXLR8: No, your rules are pointed at individual teams, not all of the teams as a whole. You should have written your rules correctly if you wanted characters to be locked in once a single person mentions them.

@CerusSerenade: I stand corrected. You didn't break any rules of this thread. However, Anime Vice does not consider any and everything that is animated to be anime. The fact that nearly 100% of the content covered on the site is of a Japanese nature (the only exception being My Little Pony articles made a year or more ago by a mod who acting on his own with approval from a single staff member that is no longer employed by the site) should be a clear sign that the Japanese aspect is indeed a defining factor in what the site considers to be anime.

@SMXLR8 Why was I PM'd about this? He didn't break any rules of your post.

For both of you, keep your argument polite and take it into another thread dedicated to the topic or PMs.

I would hope that we aren't just restrained to japanese anime, but other forms of anime that aren't made in Japan. Samurai Jack is very much like japanese anime. Can you say that there is too much of a difference between Samurai Jack and say, Casshern or Ruroni Kenshin?
